Heb HebrewsHebreeën, chapterhoofdstuk Epistle to the HebrewsDe brief aan de Hebreeën, chapterhoofdstuk 5

For every High Priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things [pertaining] to God-The Father, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:

Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.

And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.
